遊離前腕皮弁を用いた口蓋再建の経験

抄録

Palatal reconstruction with various flaps has been performed for palatal defects. Palatal reconstruction with a double-folded radial forearm flap was performed in a patient with palatal defect following maxillectomy. To prevent bulkiness and drooping of the flap which are often with traditional flap, the oral side of the double-folded flap was hung on the maxillary side, which was sutured under slight tension between the normal palate and the zygomatic site. One year after operation the arch form of the reconstructed palate has been maintained.
